Llorente aiming for Champions League reprieve against Liverpool

Dana Schwartz

But Lucas Moura's second-half hat-trick, including a 96th-minute victor, inspired Spurs to their first Champions Leaguefinal, progressing on away goals.

Tottenham will play Liverpool in an all-English Champions League final on Saturday 1 June after they produced a stunning comeback to beat Ajax, thanks to a 96th minute victor by hat-trick hero Lucas Moura on Wednesday night.

Tottenham full-back Kieran Trippier revealed: "We're all hoping he can be back for the final because of his presence".

"We were out at half-time and we were playing badly, but this is football". Somebody like Harry, his presence, travelling with us in the first place, it just shows what character he is, and the leader he is.

In fact, there's an argument to say he shouldn't be the No. 1 'keeper at United for its final two games of the season. United's last two games of the season are against Huddersfield Town and Cardiff City.

The Belgium defender, who played the game with a face mask after his first-leg injury to his nose, is unlikely to be risked against Everton in the finalPremier League game of the season on Sunday.

Virgin Media Sport's Brian Kerr and Keith Andrews were on duty for the game last night and the former Irish worldwide boss was in hysterics as Lucas Moura fired in the victor.

"I think this is not about tactics, this is not about philosophy, this is about heart and soul, and a fantastic empathy he created with this group of players".

Kane confirmed that he was in the dressing room, and hinted that he'd spoken, saying, "It was a disappointing first half and we let them play. The games were incredible up until now, so I am going to try and get to the final". "I think we didn't deserve this happening to us". "We have been outstanding this season and if something happens everyone can be very proud and happy".
